other family members don't like turkey and brought ham. But with that small bird I made several quarts of rich, delicious turkey broth for soup. I've got leeks and potatoes just waiting for it. I did have enough turkeymeat leftovers for a casserole and sandwiches, though. You were really creative with your dishes.

from the prime rib roast I cooked on Thanksgiving.
Amazing amount of meat for us 2, so half of it is in the freezer till we get beef munchies again.

Mr. dixie is not really crazy about turkey, so we rib roasts or Cornish Game hens for the holidays.

growing up we had Turkey on Thanksgiving
and just as we would be finishing up left overs
Christmas would find us eating the bird again.
I have issues ..
we had venison, beef, pork, lamb, and ducks in the freezer
no we had to have Turkey. shesh
like I said ... I have issues.
